I've always taken this to mean that you need 192 megs for acceptable
performance for a graphical system (that is a system with X installed),
but that you need 128 megs to run the graphical installer. 

128 megs is minimum to use graphical installer.
192 recommended minimum to run a graphical system. 
It's not tremendously clear, but that's the way I've always read it. 

I've done graphical installs (of FC2) on a system with 64 megs of memory
before, though. I haven't tried it with FC3 test, yet.
